Trends in the Incidence of Central Precocious Puberty and Normal Variant Puberty Among Children in Denmark, 1998 to 2017

open access: yesJAMA Network Open, 2020
Key Points Question Have the annual incidence rates of central precocious puberty (CPP) and normal variant puberty (ie, premature thelarche and premature adrenarche) increased during the past 20 years in Denmark?

Atualização em etiologia, diagnóstico e manejo da precocidade sexual [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Precocious puberty is defined as the development of secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys. Gonadotropin-dependent precocious puberty (GDPP) results from the premature activation of the hypothalamic ...

Influence of HFD-induced precocious puberty on neurodevelopment in mice

open access: yesNutrition and Metabolism, 2021
Background Precocious puberty is frequently associated with obesity, which will lead to long-term effects, especially on growth and reproduction. However, the effect of precocious puberty on children's neurodevelopment is still unknown.

Timing of maternal exposure and fetal sex determine the effects of low-level chemical mixture exposure on the fetal neuroendocrine system in sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We have shown that continuous maternal exposure to the complex mixture of environmental chemicals (ECs) found in human biosolids (sewage sludge), disrupts mRNA expression of genes crucial for development and long-term regulation of hypothalamo-pituitary ...

Treatment of Peripheral Precocious Puberty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
There are many etiologies of peripheral precocious puberty (PPP) with diverse manifestations resulting from exposure to androgens, estrogens, or both. The clinical presentation depends on the underlying process and may be acute or gradual.

Assessing Pubertal Timing, Duration, and Related Characteristics in ASXL‐Related Disorders: A Cross‐Sectional Caregiver Survey Analysis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited studies have been conducted on pubertal development in populations with pre‐existing medical conditions. More than 20‐fold increased risk of early puberty has been reported in neurodevelopmental disorders; however, this is a heterogeneous group.

Central precocious puberty: From genetics to treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Central precocious puberty (CPP) results from early activation of the hypothalamic - pituitary -gonadal (HPG) axis and follows the same sequence as normal puberty.

Precocious puberty in girls

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
Precocious puberty in girls can be due to number of factors of which idiopathic central precocious puberty is the most common etiology. Here, we describe 3 cases of precocious puberty where the first case had premature thelarche in the background history of mother with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, cases 2 and 3 had ovarian tumours with heterogeneity in ...

Bone Health and Pubertal Induction in Turner Syndrome: The Possibility of Earlier Transdermal Lower‐Dose Estradiol Therapy for Healthy Bone Density and Quality

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effect of estrogen deficiency on bone health in Turner syndrome (TS) may be a concern even before adulthood. Previous guidelines have discussed hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in children with TS. However, some practical issues related to puberty induction in TS require clarification, such as how to implement HRT to achieve adequate bone

GENETICS IN ENDOCRINOLOGY: Genetic etiologies of central precocious puberty and the role of imprinted genes.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Pubertal timing is regulated by the complex interplay of genetic, environmental, nutritional and epigenetic factors. Criteria for determining normal pubertal timing, and thus the definition of precocious puberty, have evolved based on published ...
